But it could make new scratchers feel bad when they see people rated their project 1 star.

Re: rating
thats why you can disable it and to the second person who posted, it could also help you know if people like your projects though on a scale rather then a general good

They have already said no.
5. 1-5 Stars
My first update! (Yeah, like you care.) I saw two instances of it on the suggestions area, which prompted me to place it here... it's been around already, but it's about time the answer was known.
I browsed around the different topics, and it wasn't long before there was the answer:BWOG wrote:
The Scratch Team has already said no because they think that then new programmers will be discouarged that people rated it 1 so they leave Scratch. I wish they would add it.
To be honest, I never thought of that. *blush*. But that's true... think from a new user's perspective. You upload your first project, and Whoo-Hoo! It's on! You wait eagerly for any response, and what you see is a 1 star rating.
"Oh, that's nice," you think, before putting down a bunch of angry replies (if you've noticed the reply feature, that is).
Here's something else:big-bang wrote:

That would be cool! Rate whatever they think of the project and there could be a highest rated spot on the front page...
1 person rates 5 stars and nobody else has rated it - instant front page.
It should have to have 9< ratings to be eligible for the front page.The-Whiz replied...

How about it has to have 10 or more ratings to be on the front page and it starts out as a 5?
Or when you rate it it adds to a mass total, and it automatically rates it 1 if you don't rate it...
So:
Project A: 5
Project B: 5
Someone rates project a 2 and Project B 4:
Project A: 7
Project B: 9
And so on.That seems a bit complicated (or maybe I'm just a bit dim
). But there's that post about the Scratch Team's reason, and they're the ones who decide.
